Most reviewers are very positive, highlighting friendly, helpful staff, easy online booking and reminders, clear communication (calls/SMS and helpful videos), competitive pricing and little extras like complimentary cleaning. A minority reported problems — long waits with poor on-the-day communication, an instance of the garage refusing to MOT vans after booking, and a few unresolved repairs that needed a main dealer revisit. Generally recommended by customers, but double-check vehicle-type acceptance and ask about likely wait times.
